In a small village, there was a legendary swordsmith who forged a magnificent double-edged sword. The sword was named “Justice,” and it was said to have the power to vanquish evil and bring peace to the land. However, as time passed, the village elder’s successor became corrupted by power and greed. He used Justice to oppress and enslave the villagers, exploiting its strength for personal gain. The sword’s negative effects became apparent, and the villagers suffered greatly.
The story of Justice, the double-edged sword, served as a reminder that even the most powerful tools can have both positive and negative effects, depending on the intentions of those who wield them. In this regard, Uganda is a village with double edged sword with positive and negative multiplier effects onto the people. President Museveni has played the LION and FOX tactics during his high profiled political journey.
From his bush war days upto date, the son of Kaguta has showcased a fearless, tough and strongman image, and then a moderate, liberal and very tolerant person. This has been his major strength and weakness leading to what Uganda is today. He is the exact opposite of Gen. Paul Kagame for (Rwandan Democratic govermance), and Tanzanian Democratic system too.

Its in Uganda where the opposition can castigate, talk about a government’s weakness in the press, be it social media, and go back home safely, Its only in Uganda where the corrupt are given time and space to prove their innocence yet they also know that they are 100 percent guilty.
Its in this nation where opposition political blocks have their own president controlling the election losers block, those on the social media, and those in the ghetto taking marijuana, waragi and mairungi. Its in this very nation where citizens talk ill of their motherland even to the foreign donors, and nothing is done to them. All the above happen because of political freedoms and human rights, noo, its because of the personality of Museveni, and this has prolonged his Political life expectancy.
Its in Uganda still where everyday is a partying holiday with pomp and fanfare, bars are open 24/7, brothels do provide services unchecked and Musicians rule urban centres. Betting is a big industry and foreign football clubs hold mass support and membership than local football leagues. And it is in here where every one cares for himself, national issues are for those in politics and government employment. In other words, Patriotism is a yesterday thing.
The law is bended according to who is the victim vizaviz complsinant.
And lastly its in here where slander, obscenities, and all sorts of abuses are used in solving political differences. So everything is tolerated, and that is MUSEVENOCRACY. My question is how long shall this Musevenocracy stay? The answer is as long as president Museveni is still in power…. And after him leaving power, whom do you expect among the opposition leaders to reverse this? Is it Bobi Wine, Besigye, Mpuuga, Nobert Mao? Ofcourse, people should start contemplating about the years to come, Uganda, without the African CHE GUEVARRA.
A leader in the league of Paul Kagame or the late JP Magufuli of Tanzania is needed to do FACTORY RESETTING. The son of Kaguta is both loved and hated by his people because of his leadership qualities, and it depends on how one perceives him. Its upon you to judge him according to your rationale, but history is yet to judge him if he orchestrates a smooth transition of political power to another political actor.
Gaddafi of Libya is a good example, after his demise of course see Modern Libya now. Let not the nation be handed over to political hyenas opportunists and self seekers, and as the current crop of leaders fighting their way to IKULU(State house, wait till his successor comes into power so that you too can brush your shoes, iron your expensive suit and showcase your abilities to Ugandans.
Otherwise for now, Museveni has created a POLLUTED society for his best interests, and Robert Kyagulanyi is one of the most polluted ones. God bless Uganda The genetation will want a leader who is more lenient like the NRM guru….thats why his chosen successor should steer the wheel, after which a credible leader shall arise.
For those who think of changing the Political course of the country, let them start CIVIC groups, repoliticise the masses up to the grassroot level where the peasants are, otherwise if one guages the Social media frenzy NUP fans, its not a baseline for change, and the STRUGGLE should be more credible if its not held by a CACOON of already polluted, and wishful youngmen.🇬The famous ten point programmes Museveni crafted during his bushwar days were discarded in the dustbins of history….From 1996, to date, persinal vision runs this country, and unless the NRM crafts a leader quite different from Museveni, but with the same charisma, the Yellow bus shall not be able to move on the very roads and environment its current leader created over a long period of time.
Both the opposition and the ruling regime have a lot of home work to do, and the markers shall be the next generation of voters not the polluted ones of now🇺🇬

Ugandan Citizen Abducted, Held in Secret Detention for Three Months, Sparks Outrage and Calls for Justice
A disturbing new case of unlawful detention has surfaced, highlighting the ongoing human rights crisis in Uganda. A Ugandan citizen was reportedly abducted and held in a secret facility, known as a “safe house,” for three months, only to be released without charge or explanation. This incident, reported by NTV Uganda, has sparked widespread condemnation and renewed calls for accountability regarding human rights abuses in the country.
While the details surrounding the abduction remain unclear, reports indicate that the individual was taken without due process and held incommunicado—an action that has long been condemned by human rights organizations. The victim’s release, with no charges filed and no clear justification, has angered activists and citizens, who view this as yet another case of egregious abuse of power by the state.
“This is a recurring pattern,” said one human rights activist. “Abductions, secret detentions, and unexplained releases have become all too common in Uganda. These acts violate fundamental human rights and erode public trust in the justice system.”
The use of “safe houses,” unregistered detention facilities reportedly operated by security forces, has been a focal point in numerous allegations of torture and illegal imprisonment. Despite repeated calls from both local and international organizations for their closure and accountability for those involved, little action has been taken to address these violations.
This case underscores the urgent need for reform within Uganda’s security apparatus and greater accountability for human rights abuses. Observers hope that drawing attention to these injustices will spur concrete action to bring those responsible to justice and ensure the protection of basic human rights.
As frustration mounts, calls for both domestic and international pressure to hold the government accountable for such crimes grow louder. “One day, there must be accountability for all these crimes against our people,” stated one social media user, reflecting the sentiments of many Ugandans.
National Unity Platform (NUP) President Robert Kyagulanyi has accused Ugandan security forces of using excessive force to disrupt a planned NUP gathering. The allegations were detailed in a statement shared on Twitter, following an event held to honor children of NUP supporters who were killed, disappeared, or detained for their political beliefs.
According to Kyagulanyi, security personnel, under the command of an officer identified as Asiimwe, carried out a preemptive operation early in the morning upon learning of the NUP’s plans. The forces allegedly stormed the premises, arrested workers, and deployed tear gas to disperse those present.
“The criminals under the command of one Asiimwe deployed early morning, arrested our workers, and threw tear gas into our premises. They’ve cordoned off the premises and blocked all people from accessing the place,” Kyagulanyi wrote.
Among those reportedly arrested were Saava Peter, Mudenya Samson, and Turyasingura Samson. Kyagulanyi claimed the detained workers were subjected to beatings and interrogated about their political affiliations, with security operatives labeling them as terrorists.
“These JATT operatives asked the workers who they support politically, branding them terrorists and criminals—their only crime being that they work with us. You can imagine the indignity!” Kyagulanyi lamented.
This incident adds to the growing tension in Uganda’s political climate, where opposition parties frequently accuse the government of stifling dissent. Despite the challenges, Kyagulanyi ended his statement with a message of defiance and optimism, proclaiming, “UGANDA WILL BE FREE.”
